ACall of Duty: Warzoneworld record that has stood for 7 months has been broken. 14 year old Bruno “Nistaf” Silva and his father broke the previous record of 76 kills in the Duos category ofCall of Duty: Warzonewith their own record of 79, though the young Silva put on a standout performance as he racked up 61 kills to his father’s 18.
The Duos playlist wasadded toWarzonein May of last yearafter it had been highly requested for some time. Players immediately jumped in to prove their mettle, and in July of 2020 a 76 kill record was achieved by players ItsDerekMay and LIAM. But yesterday Silva had a new record in his sights. He was the definition of deadly silence as he shot his way to 61 kills without so much as uttering more than a few words.

Silva’s poise during his match is admirable, and he seems to know exactly where to find opponents at any given moment. It will be no surprise toWarzonefans that Silva uses every every tool in his arsenal, grabbing knife kills, SUV kills, and kills with akimbo 9mm Parabellum pistols. Even less of surprise will be Silva’s liberal use of the DMR-14, a marksman rifle that has defined the latestWarzonemeta and hasfans and pro gamers alike calling the game “unplayable.”
Silva manages to deal over 17,000 damage during the course of the match as he shows off some flick shots and snipes from far across the map. He spends the majority of the match on his own, constantly switching cover andbuying plenty of killstreaks. According to Silva’s father, Silva honed these skills playing other FPS and battle royale games likePUBG,Apex Legends, andFortnite. Silva’s personal best kill count before this record-setting performance was 48. It’s safe to say he’s left that number firmly in the dust.
Breaking a record inWarzoneisn’t easy, which makes Silva’s performance even more of standout. All potential record submissions must be in video format, with scoreboard images not allowed. Matches played on a lower-level smurf account are disqualified as well to ensure quality opponents, and potential record videos must always include the player level. Of course, the addition ofCall of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warcontent has made record-breaking easier. Pro player Jordan “HusKerrs” Thomas took advantage of the DMR-14 and Mac-10 weapons (both fromBlack Ops Cold War) to achieve his latest world record in the Solo vs. Duos category. Though both Silva and Thomas played some stellar matches, plenty of people areunhappy withBlack Ops Cold War’s integration intoWarzone.
But Silva has a bright future inCall of Dutygames ahead of him and should be proud of his world record. His skill is clear even without the DMR, which is supposed to be gettingnerfed alongside the Mac-10 in futureWarzoneupdates. His record is the first newWarzonerecord of 2021, and there will no doubt be more to come.
Call of Duty: Warzoneis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
